I am extremely picky on album titles and song titles and this new album's name is purrrfick
Linkin Park died with Chester. Can't stand the new singer. I gave her a chance but she isn't anywhere close to what they needed. I wish them success but ill be sticking to Hybrid Theory and Meteora for the foreseeable future.
I guess I don't really have much of an opinion on the new era. I'll give the new stuff a chance but I'm kinda treating it like a neat bonus feature rather than a real continuation.
I was lucky enough to get to see LP with Chester in 2003 and 2012, definitely treasured concert memories.
I hate to say it but HisC is a pretty solid song. She has Chester's...register? on this one. I really like it. And the notes on "Try to hold it in, but..." is so addictive.
I dig it. Breakdown part is maybe a little bit too One Step Closer-ish but really that's not a bad thing. Nice to hear some classic Mr. Hahn scratching.
Still not used to "new Linkin Park song" being a regular thing to read in the music news, it throws me for a loop every time they release a new one. But I'm enjoying the new era and I'm looking forward to the album.

everything you typed, is how I feel too
this one was released a couple of weeks ago
I can't wait til this Friday and I'm loving Two Faced.
its a great album
creative new songs and melodies with the same vibes and mixture of all the previous albums
the new singer fits well into the sound
the drum kit used with that same slight delay snare, kind of a Linkin Park original drum pattern is great to hear. They stopped doing that after The Hunting Party
i liked it a lot
I liked hearing all the scratching from Mr. Hahn.
Great album but gonna give it a few more replays to see which tracks are my true favorites.
I haven't listened to the new Linkin Park album and have only heard the few singles they released before it. I'm just not digging the new vocals. She's got chops, for sure. But I can't listen to her knowing she's singing for one of my favorite bands growing up. It just doesn't sit right. I've nothing against her personally as she seems very talented. But it just isn't for me.
